Veterans Day

+

Challenge #1

Can you draw a Thank You card?

Did you know: Every Operation Gratitude Care Package includes a bundle of letters from the American people, thanking Troops, Veterans, New Recruits, Wounded Heroes and their Caregivers, or First Responders for their service to our country. Care Package recipients tell us these letters, notes, and drawings are the most cherished items in their box.

Challenge #2

Can you draw a service person in uniform?

Did you know: Have you heard of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard? This is the military. The military is part of our government, and is made up of people who have agreed to join the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines or Coast Guard, in order to become part of this branch of the government. They are trained for many situations, including emergencies at home. Their goal is to protect people who live in their country (and elsewhere).

Challenge #3

Can you draw a flag for Veteran's Day?

Did you know: Originally, when known as Armistice Day, it was meant to honor those who died in World War I, but when it was amended in the early 1940s, it was changed to honor all the veterans who have served in the U.S. military.
